Do equipment stands have an impact on electronics?

Come on, Mains. Are you pulling our legs?

"I have found threw trial and error"

"We have not all got stacks of doe"

"Benefit your hole system"

"great on there own"

"one product that done it all"

you really need to try them, i have a room full of goodies from the stillpoints older volcano version, stillpoints componant stands 3 legs, clearlight audio RDC cones with multi base various sizes, exstasy props from china , final durama bearings, club wood disc from korea, 4 mpingo disc on your recommendation, finite elemente universal ceraball , seismic platforms, pods, symposium bearings in the cup with the + ball,

 i have been trying various isolation products for years, the best improvements i got by miles was the podiums under my speakers Sound lab dynastats, then the seismic corner bars type S under my 3 legs of my copulare, i have now put my cd player on top of the stillpoint componant stand with 6 dampers and the sound has taken another big step up in performance not as big as the podiums but not far off,

not one size fits all i am merely passing on my findings and i hope other audiophiles try what i have done and got the same results, 

i would personally isolate your loudspeakers first ie try the podiums they are sold discounted in the UK, then i recommend a solid rack with wooden shelves, then try the older stillpoints i find they are very detailed and musical when used with a stillpoint component stand,

yes geoff i have spent a lot on isolation, so to help save other audiophiles of doing the same thing i have merely pointed out my journey and what really stood out for me that worked, and yes the podiums are that good i recommend everyone should try them and the first generation stillpoints with componant stands for the money are great to regards john

Mpingo discs of course shouldn’t really be included in your list of vibration isolation products since they are best placed in the category of vibration control. Which leads me to make the following observation. The reason you had such good results with the Mpingo discs is that you already had implemented vibration control protocols. So it’s easier to hear changes to the system. The system is more revealing of tweaks in general. The Mpingo discs can lead to harder things like Shun Mook Spatial Kits that comprise 3 Mpingo discs per bracket and are super powerful, as well as other vibration control devices such as Marigo VTS dots for Windows, walls, speaker diaphragms, speaker cabinets, electronics chassis, capacitors, CD tray, electron tubes, among other things. I have constrained layer dampers for transformers, CD transports and shelving for electronics, and natural cork (Quark!) solutions for capacitors, transformers and capacitors. The pebbles addresses vibration issues for room boundaries, transformers, speaker cabinets, Windows, walls, standing waves, reflected acoustic waves and other comb filter effects, etc. Herbies tube dampers (but not other types of tube dampers) should also be included in any list of vibration control devices. And let us not forget all those tiny little bowl acoustic resonators, including my own ceramic ones and my ceramic wall outlets which are also vibration control devices.

The Law of System Maximization: No matter how much you have in the end you would have had even more if you had started off with more.
